I checked a friends gun once, it felt weird. Taking it apart, it had white gunk in it. She had been admiring it while eating ice cream. Wiping it off the outside isnt enough.
We just need to keep in mind we have no information on what loads were used. Id be surprised if she was using full power 357 loads and not 38 special loads. Most people state their gun is a 357...
In the case of Taran Butler, that doesnt appear to be an issue, he seems able to hit about anything he wants to distances further than spitting distance, and evenly placed targets arent a factor....
I saved this, in the politics and news folder. Because its how I see most of the political absurdity the past few years.
And it not about "those other guys", its the guys I used to think were...
Any chance you have a Colt Peacemaker 22 or New Frontier 22 that need a good home?
Ive seen this video, and the longer version. Theres two take-aways that come to mind, Yes, its quite possible to get very good at "hip shooting" with extensive practice, the other, its not...
Indeed.

Dad was perplexed as to why I started with the gun butt to hip, muzzle where I was looking to start when shooting clays. I told him thats how Id be using it if hunting birds or bunnies or whatever,...
This is an important point. Many like to say that lower held or so-called hip/point shooting is useless, it isnt, and some impressive results can be had if one practices extensively. In the bad old...
The safeties for scopes were generally on the right side, up for safe, down for fire, with limited movement compared to the military paddle or wing type.
Ive used a coarse file and sandpaper to...
I expect they are a bit sturdier as well.
If you end up using it, it may be worth getting a spare windage screw if you come across one. Its embarrassing to find one missing when headed to a hunt....
I believe that is intended to sit on the flat just ahead of the inverted dovetail, drilling and tapping one hole to suit.
Ive been watching this for a while, looking at vintage razors on ebay,....
Stopped in an antique shop on the way to get a few groceries, they had a 1976 Gillette Super Speed with black handle....
P08 would be the one single 9mm gun for me.
The one on the left is Molly, the other is Stewart, who we think was a collie/malamute cross. Both are long gone now unfortunately, and another dogs lifetime passed as well. Have a possible...
My taste in vintage rifles of that type run towards the 1903s. My 25-06 1903 is currently in a military stock, not sure if it will stay in it or get a sporter stock.

This one dad bought mail order back in the days before GCA 68 and had a local gunsmith sporterize it. Its in a Fajen Aristocrat stock, not one I would have chosen style wise, but fits me very well,...
It looks like a fairly well done sporterization, the lack of info on the maker is the only disconcerting note to me. The description says "made in the 50s", I dont think any were "made" from US...
Good idea, looks simple enough.
Ive seen lights made specifically for reloading use, they are kinds cool, but do cost quite a bit more. The streamlight of course can be used besides on the press....
No way to know without trying one, or more? I dont know if there was any standardization in hole spacing between brands. If it were me, Id probably try to get the scope as low as possible after...
Do you know if the later parts drop into earlier guns if one had the later parts in hand?
He had a video about getting an 1866 up and running that was pretty good, as was the one about his old blacksmith shop on his ranch. Agree, he has some good stuff.
Im not familiar with the variations other than the earliest vs later. Ive had 2 in the distant past and regret trading them off.
Theres some info about variations by type here ...
